The Puligny-Montrachet 2016 is a poised and beautifully balanced village wine from a classic, harmonious vintage. Aromas of pear, white peach, lemon zest, and acacia blossom open gently, layered with subtle notes of hazelnut and wet stone. On the palate, the wine is supple yet focused, with vibrant acidity giving lift to its finely textured mid-palate. Flavors of orchard fruit, citrus oil, and light mineral tones unfold with clarity and restraint. A discreet creaminess adds depth without softening the wine’s linear profile. The finish is long, clean, and precise—an elegant Puligny that captures both vintage finesse and Pernot’s signature refinement.

Domaine Paul Pernot is a sixth-generation family estate based in Puligny-Montrachet, long admired for its classical, restrained style and deep respect for terroir. The domaine works its vineyards with meticulous care, emphasizing old vines, low yields, and balanced ripeness to preserve natural freshness. In the cellar, Pernot favors gentle pressing, cool fermentations, and very measured oak use, allowing purity and minerality to lead. The house style avoids excess weight, focusing instead on precision, tension, and longevity. Puligny-Montrachet is the heart of the estate, interpreted here with clarity and finesse rather than overt richness. Pernot’s wines are consistently prized for their elegance and quiet authority.
